    differential additives

    Yes, the 14 Bolt rear on your M1028 uses a locker- it doesn't need any additives. The posi-unit in your front Dana 60 will need a bottle of the limited slip additive as it is a clutch-type unit.

    Help with Glow Plugs

    Really? OKay, maybe I do not have a problem after all. I will check the glow plugs themselves to see if they are cycling. This truck's wiring appears to be in decent shape and really not tampered with. Thanks a lot for your help!

    Coolant filter in CUCV

    I installed a twin coolant filter setup on my M1008 and it works sweet. Sectioned the larger (3/4) heater hose IN coming from heater box and OUT going to radiator port. Used FLEETGUARD part number #215617S. Mounted the filter head to the side of the passenger fender. Works great- you will not be...

    Help with Glow Plugs

    Hi all- I have 2 1986 M1008s and both glow plug systems have their own issues. The first M1008 I got starts fine in cold/warm weather no real complaints there, but the glow plug system doesn't seem to have any after-glow. WAIT light illuminates, goes out, truck starts and light never comes back...
